$4.35 Fix for Intel Thermal Problems | Thermalright 12th Gen Contact Frame

A while ago, GN had that video of a $35 frame improving the temps by 7-9C. Well now he is comparing the $35 to a $5 one you can get on Ali Express and it turns out, they perform about the same while being easier to install. Supposedly the reason the TG one costs so much is because Der8auer worked with TG to keep things local to Germany where as the Thermalright version is right out of China where the labour and etc are much cheaper. Also the TG one has a bit better precision. But imo, the gap in price is massive either way you look at it for performance that is about the same. So sorry Der8auer but this video basically killed the product.
